Saturday Style - Game Day

Saturday Style

Saturdays in the fall are synonymous with football and it is a great excuse to flaunt your favorite team colors. I live in Hawk Country but you could personalize this look to represent your own loyal leanings.

A go to look for me is a pair of favorite jeans. These flared faded denim jeans from AG are more fitted through the leg but flared below the knee which makes the thigh look thinner. Gotta love that.

After all these years I have mastered all of these fool the eye tricks. 

:D

Another ploy I use is to layer a cropped tee over a longer tee or tank top. 

The tank top pulled down over the jeans is elongating while the cropped tee is cut boxier and fuller. It stands away from the body which makes our waists and hips look just that much smaller. Try it. It works.

I bought my jeans from Bergdorf's this summer but you can find them HERE

The crop top is from TJ Maxx

The Hawkeye earrings can be purchased through Amazon

and the cell phone cover is through Rakuten

Happy shopping.

Happy Saturday

Inspired by Yolanda Foster - Saturday Style

Yes, I'll admit it. I watch Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. True, I watch to feel better about my own life, I watch for the laughs but most of all I watch for the fashion, some good, some not so good.

:D

Yolanda's easy tailored style is perfect for a woman of any age but works particularly well for a 50ish or nearly 50ish woman. Her casual go to look is usually a classic denim or skinny white jeans paired with a simple oxford shirt, tee, turtle neck or tank top. 

She rocks this casual look.

Add in that Hermes belt and I am a fan for life.

I've pulled together my own version of this Saturday Style look.

White and summer, the perfect combination.  I somehow erroneously added the Citizens of Humanity jean to my Polyvore board and didn't want to go back in and republish it but in reality the jean I have loved this summer is the Blue Essence skinny twill jean sold exclusively through Nordstroms. I loved these so much I tried to order a second pair. Sold out. Boo. Maybe they will come in colors for fall.

I love how this jean fits. Skinny leg but not too tight, mid-rise, and with just enough stretch. It was $88.00 but is now on sale at Nordstrom's in limited sizes. I don't like to pay any more than this for a white jean since I seem to only get one, maybe two seasons out of them.

The Gucci belt was a splurge I allowed myself while in NYC this summer.  I love it and it was much less than the Hermes version.

:D

A pop of color with jewelry or a fedora and your look is complete.

Happy week-end.

I'm so glad you stopped by. If you are visiting from BeColorful and are interested in shoes, handbags, new trends, and all things fashion then I hope you will consider following me here too. I will continue to post my painted pieces and home inspirations on BeColorful but A 50ish Life is where I will feature style posts that work for the forty and fifty something woman. We don't want to dress like our daughters and we don't want to look like our grandmothers either. Instead I hope to offer up to date and flattering options for this fabulous chapter in our lives.
